World Wheelchair Rugby is deeply saddened by the passing of Garett Hickling, one of the sport’s most iconic and influential figures...

I keep hearing we don't need an active transport lane on Broadway because 8th & 10th exist. Here's a map of crashes involving cyclists over 5 years.

The corridor between 4th–16th has 1/3 of all crashes (950/2744). The black box is 10th Ave.

Remind me where the safe routes are?

[Jaimie Borisoff @borisoff]

@Lucyincanada @TriciaBarker49 @ParkBoard Yes! And also the fact that the sea wall is often closed in the winter.

[Martyn Schmoll @martynschmoll]

Remember: this is the route opponents of the #StanleyPark bike lane kept insisting was the place people should be riding if they wanted to take bikes into the park. It’s closed for weeks or months every year for repairs or other maintenance. They don’t actually care about access.

Some thoughts on last night's 6-1 decision on the #StanleyPark bike path by the Park Board: https://t.co/BAHS6mpdaa

[Christine Boyle @christineeboyle]

Like many of you, I am livid about this short-sighted, costly, car-centric decision, that seems to benefit *ppl who want to drive faster around a park* at the expense of pedestrians, ppl riding bikes, and safety for all.

Spin it all you want, this is All ‘Bout Cars. #VanPoli

@MCHVancouver Commissioner Howard access to Stanley Park was only restricted for 2 months at the beginning of Covid after which 1 lane has been available to drivers the whole way around Stanley Park Drive. Car parks to every major destination are open & available to visitors arriving by car.

[Lucy Maloney @Lucyincanada]

@MCHVancouver With respect, Stanley Park is inaccessible to a lot of people and removing the separated bike lane is going to make it less accessible. It certainly won’t solve other complex accessibility issues in the park, such as the lack of curb cuts and ramps and the sea wall gates.

@martynschmoll @CityofVancouver Exactly. What an achievement under intense public scrutiny and immense political pressure, incredibly tight timeframes and attempting to accommodate the interests of different stakeholders while prioritising safety of vulnerable road users.
